Structural Effects of Change Management of Networks in Organizations for Communication Development and Learning

在组织变革或组织间关系的管理中，重要的是建立特殊类型的组织和组织间沟通网络，以有效地帮助成员了解变革领导者赋予的变革使命。管理研究人员认识到，这些类型的网络被称为“组织社会资本”。在理论和实证研究的基础上，我们发现在日本组织和跨组织网络中，核心区的定位和凝聚力的联系可能会在一定程度上促进学习。然而，我们也发现，网络对组织认知和变革实施的影响可以观察到，特别是在日本的情况下，我们需要对网络效应进行进一步的跨文化调查。

In management of change in organization or interorganizational relationships, it is important that special types of organizational and interorganizational communication network which effectively help members to learn change mission given from change leaders. Management researchers recognize that these types of networks are as "organizational social capital." Based on theoretical and empirical research, we find that positioning in core area and cohesive ties may facilitate learning at a certain level in Japanese organizational and interorganizational networks. However, we also find that network effects on organizational recognition and change implementation can be observed especially in Japanese situation and we need further cross cultural investigation of network effects.
